Actually cheaper bandwidth and storage only make these type of systems more accessible and the micro transactions cost even more negligible. It is migrating from an illusory free web to a truly free one in both senses of the word.

Not all applications running in these sort of platforms need to be about money either, and "mistakes" like the one in the dao happen can happen in all software, it can be coded as centralized or as decentralized in terms of management as you wish, the key difference though is that the platform itself is decentralized.

Additionally, in the Serenity phase of Ethereum contracts will be able to pay for transactions, which effectively makes transactions free if you like that sort of model, is that something that would make you happier torwards Ethereum and other decentralized systems?
